18 Οκτ 2024 · View ancient petroglyphs up close along the Snake River in Southwest Idaho. This is an all day hike. If you decide to use a mountain bike, it becomes a half-day ride. Walk across the Swan Falls Dam. Once across the dam, turn left and head upriver on the singletrack trail. Turn right where a doubletrack joins the trail.

10 Μαρ 2011 · This week I'm recommending going hiking, biking or running from Swan Falls Dam to Wees Bar, where one can view a variety of cool Native American petroglyphs, on the south side of the Snake River. It's 12.2 miles to Wees Bar from the dam round-trip.
Wees Bar is a flat, pleasant, 12-mile round-trip hike accessed from Swan Falls Dam near Melba, Idaho. There is no shade, so you will want to go when it's cool. I hiked it on a February morning and had the entire trail to myself.
At Wees Bar, a remote area accessible only by bike or foot, explore hundreds of petroglyphs carved into glacial boulders by Native Americans 12,000 years ago. Begin at the Swan Falls Dam parking lot. Bring a fat bike in late summer and fall to glide over the dry, loose dirt that forms as the canyon bakes in the summer sun.
4 Ιουλ 2020 · This trail begins at the boat launch south of Swan Falls Dam on the east bank of the Snake River and travels south along the river for two miles, becoming more rocky and primitive the farther you hike. There are excellent views of the canyon walls, river, and local flora and fauna, including nesting birds of prey.
